Ciudadanos no es la versión trillada de un régimen muriendo de enfermedad y decrepitud, sino el reflejo de la transformación que cambió la historia de Europa para siempre: el paso de hombres y mujeres de «sujetos» a «ciudadanos». Partiendo de la idea de que la fe de los ciudadanos en la libertad fue la causa más que el producto de la Revolución francesa, Schama dibuja un país en ebullición en el que se derrumban las diferencias entre nobles y plebeyos, en un escenario de hambre, ira, terror y muerte.

Ни один современный конфликт не вызвал такого бурного интереса со стороны не только интеллектуалов, но и более широкой публики, как гражданская война в Испании 1936–1939 годов. Ярко запечатлевшаяся в коллективном историческом сознании, она не только предвосхитила приближение Второй мировой, но и положила начало новой, ужасающей форме ведения войны, во многом определившей XX век. В этой и по сей день авторитетной исторической работе Пол Престон рассматривает гражданскую войну как противостояние демократии и фашизма.
